Description: Based on a Dusseldorf-style Altbier. The recipe was designed by head brewer Alex Troncoso and he explains it like this… “I really love Düsseldorf and their Altbiers – which is style of dark ale that undergoes a cooler fermentation and longer cold maturation than a normal ale – they are malty yet clean, with good bitterness. Altbier means “old beer” which is a reference to the fact that at some point in time all of the beer became pale in colour, and that in Düsseldorf they still make “old style” dark beer. And then I once was sniffing some hops and came across a hop supplier from the Alsace region of France and loved their hops, but never got to use them… until now! So we made a Düsseldorf–style Altbier, with only hops from Alsace.” What you get is a little toasty malt and above it some fragrant, lush and grassy hops, all elegant and clean and simple yet bloody tasty and in keeping with the Düsseldorf classics. Malts: Pilsner, Munich, Light Crystal and Black Malt Hops: Bouclier and Aramis (used throughout, including dry hop).
